how do i download all of my music at once

So, I think you are seeing all of your songs in your computer's iTunes music library, but they all have the cloud with down-arrow symbol next to every song. If this is your situation, show your library list using the Songs view (so that you get a plain list with columns). Select any song on list, and do a Select All (Cmd-A on keyboard or menu bar -> Edit -> Select All). With all songs selected, right-click on selection and Download.

Open iTunes, go to Library, then navigate to Songs. Once at songs, you will see all of your songs with the cloud-with-down-arrow next to them. First, simply select the first song. Then you will want to move your cursor to Edit.

Then to Select All.

Then to Song.

Then to Download.

It will take a while but eventually every song on your iPod, iPad, iPhone, MacBook will be in your iTunes Library on your Computer.

when I right click on any song with the cloud logo, i don't see a download option in the menu that appears?? any suggestions?

Right click?? How do you do that with the touchpad thingy?

Can you provide more details about what you are trying to do? Download all songs purchased from iTunes Store? Do you have iTunes Match, and you want to download all songs in your iCloud music library? Is this related to using an iPod or other device?

How can you do this on an Iphone

The way I did it was to select all songs in iTunes (or just a bunch) and then choose "Make available offline" This appears to download all the tunes.

I'm having the same problem. Did you ever find a solution to this?
